Wherever we travel to, the wonderful people we meet become our family. -Lailah Gifty Akita
This year’s Engel & Völkers top agent trip coincided with Engel & Völkers 40 Year Anniversay, “The Making of a Brand” in Hamburg, Germany where E&V headquarters happens to be.
We stayed at the beautiful Fonteney Hotel – modern, sexy and sleek with top of the line technology in the rooms.

I always love these yearly trips because I get to see and spend time with people I normally wouldn’t get to. It’s definitely not all work – as you can see, we play hard too. Thank you to Mathias and his friend Michael Poliza for being our bike guides on this fun afternoon.
Taste of Hamburg
Mathias graciously hosted a few of us at Clouds – Heaven’s Bar & Kitchen on the very top floor! Amazing views, food and even better company.

Awards night was hosted at the gorgeous Hamburg Museum. I couldn’t think of a better spot to honor the success of wonderful people, especially my husband – #1 world wide!

We were lucky to have first-class tour of the city – starting with Hamburg’s Elbphilharmonie, a boat tour along the harbor, and finally seeing the famous home where Christian Völkers started this vision and is currently E&V’s logo.
40 Years of Engel & Völkers and the grand opening of the new headquarters. My husband was also recognized again in front of 400 people for being the top agent world wide! I was (and still am) such a proud wife!
